Pat Barker has a great style that I enjoyed very much, especially in the first two books of her trilogy. The subject is important, and her mixing of real and fictional characters works well.While I can recommend her writing highly, I must point out something about Dr. William Rivers, one of two major characters. The first book's title, "Regeneration" alludes to his nerve regeneration experiment with Henry Head, which was not found to be repeatable or scientifically reliable. Pat Barker makes no mention of that, but uses this as a metaphor for the regenerative effects of Rivers' psychological counseling for men suffering from PTSD during World War I. Just a quibble. The high quality of this trilogy makes me want to explore more of Pat Barker's writing.
A historical novel that brings some of the realities of the Great War into a focus that mere documentation of history cannot achieve. This is so beautifully crafted and the main character of Capt. Rivers is so beautifully drawn that it is no wonder that so many awards and accolades have been poured down on these novels.This should be definitely in any collection on this period. It brings to life the British system of raising young men of means and how the many of this repressive, emotion avoiding upbringing created layers of damage to both the conduct of the War and the mental condition of officers and men alike.An unflinching look at the work of those doctors who threated the "shell-shocked" and damaged to turn them back into the soldiers needed to throw against the fire lines of No-Mans land. The tragedy of this war which decimated the young men who were the future of all of the countries involved, leaving them in the end with only women and children and the elderly is forever haunting in the waste of youth: a war of unspeakable attrition.A must read by anyone who loves literature, or history.It addresses the cultural prejudices, against the working classes, the hated pacifists and conchies, and the desperate conditions of the working poor of England that were ground into the losses in the trenches. It makes one think of what a society does that allows it to think of war as an acceptable response to political intractablility, and how it glorifies that process. This was a war where the Officer core lost a greater percentage men to death and casualty than was experienced in the enlisted class.
This is actually 3 novels with many of the same characters. The time frame is during the period of the war of 1914.The location is in UK. When the trench stalemate became very disconcerting to those not at the front there is an impact at the front and at home. The stories point out neither home nor front are isolated theaters but merely different 'trenches' in the same war. These stories allow an exploration of how social change in UK changes or I think more accurately, stays the same despite a shift in appearance. I found the treatment of dissent and dissenters in medicine, religion,sexuality, class, politics & finance riveting.This is a thought provoking book written beautifully. The end of Empire is the back drop of the book. The end comes first in the minds of the nation at war and these books examine the minds of civilians in war and the war machinery in war. In the end everyone is at the front weather carrying a gun or not.
I read all the books in this trilogy, and I liked "Regeneration" the best - it was stunning. I had very little understanding of World War I before, and much was cleared up, including the allusions to it being a "pointless" war. Great descriptions of how horrific trench warfare was. I kept looking characters up, and lo-and-behold, they were all historical figures! The treatment of gays and how they dealt with prejudice was interesting. Great character studies in all these books.The first book ("Regeneration") was very interesting in its description of changing ways of dealing with shell shock (what we now call post traumatic stress syndrome). I enjoyed getting to know the intellectuals, artists, poets and bohemians of that era. "Life Class" left me a bit cold. "Toby's Room" was somewhat better, but not up to the standard of "Regeneration," which I would highly recommend.
Each book in the trilogy builds on each other, and deepens the emotional tone. Reading all three is an immersion into the horrors of war made even more poignant with the inclusion of the stories of real men, poets Sassoon, Owens, & Graves, and their poems. The final book, The Ghost Road, pulls in headhunting with brilliant psychological insight.
Pat Barker is an incredible writer that holds the hand of the reader and transport him to battle front, and the problems of stress caused by the battle , the conscious objector and his relationship in the context of war.River is a great character, human a very near of the man weaknesses , never aggressive in his treatments and the affective back up needed in those circumstances . The contrast of the tough war and soft soul of men, in spite of wearing uniforms and handle weapons. highly recomended to read all Pat Barker's work
I think that part of the reason that WWI in Europe is hard for historians is that so little happened from a strategic standpoint in the four years of the war. It takes a novelist like Barker to give a reader the sense of living in the trenches, the horror of the deaths, and what all of this meant to a British population that had gone into the war thinking it would be over by Christmas.
